Palmistry for All
Palmistry for All, published in 1916, is a manual by Cheiro, the professional name of the Irish fortune-teller William John Warner, who read the hands of celebrities from Mark Twain to Oscar Wilde and became the most famous palmist of his age. The book explains his system step by step: the shapes of the hand and the fingers, the meaning of the thumb, the lines of life, head, heart and fate, the mounts, the marks and crosses, and how to judge health, character, marriage and fortune from them, with illustrated diagrams throughout. Cheiro also recounts some of his own readings. Whatever one thinks of its claims, the book is a complete statement of the palmistry that flourished in the Edwardian drawing room. It is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, with the first chapter free.
